Hello Xsyon Citizens!

The server and client have been updated with a patch and the server is restarting, primarily to fix some critical issues since Saturday's big patch. This patch includes:

- Gauges separated, colored, can be moved freely and set to save positions and orientation.
- Increased maximum stack count on many resources.
- Small optimizations to zone loading, server side.
- Fixed problem not fully loading boulders and caves in some zones.
- Fixed client bug causing freezes crossing zones while raining.
- Fixed problem with stacking creature heads (the ability to stack heads was recently added. Old heads were not updated correctly).

Enjoy!

Hello Xsyon Citizens!

Just a quick, important note: We are preparing another new installer and launcher, with some minor improvements. This installer will perform a full install of the game. Returning players with older launcher versions and some ongoing players are experiencing random errors due to files being corrupted because of problems in packed data files caused by older patcher versions.

This launcher will be made available before the weekend, but after today's maintenance and patch (We have another patch going out today during the daily maintenance. This patch includes an improved chat panel

Hello Xsyon Citizens!

The Question and Answer session is now current and up to date for those interested! Some of my answers are brief as I had a lot of catching up to do with these. I hope that everything was answered to your satisfaction.

The Feature page has also been updated to reflect the evolutions of the game since launch. It's been a long time coming and we plan to revise this list more often in the future.

Next up this week I will update the In Development and In Testing sections to reflect what we have planned for the next 2 months.
